SEE FIRST IMAGES FROM BOOKISH PERIOD SET SERIES WITH MARK GATISS, POLLY WALKER, JOELY RICHARDSON, JACOB FORTUNE LLOYD, TOM FORBES, LUKE NORRIS, DANIEL MAYS

 BOOKISH PERIOD SET SERIES 
AT UKTV'S ALIBI REVEALS FIRST IMAGES
UKTV's Alibi channel has shot a new six episode series for 2025 from Mark Gatiss who also stars as a book shop-owning sleuth and we have the first images from it. Set in 1946 London BOOKISH will see him play the erudite and unconventional Gabriel Book, who helps the police to solve a variety of mysterious crimes from his antiquarian bookshop. With three main cases in the series, each storyline spans two episodes.
  LONDON, 1946
is the dynamic, dangerous and chaotic setting for this stylish new detective drama, with the eccentric Gabriel Book at the very heart of the story: a self-appointed consultant detective to the local police. The thousands of books that line the shelves of his shop provide him with all the knowledge he needs. Book has gathered around him a host of lovable, damaged misfits whom he informally protects, cajoles, and mentors. 
 

 WHO IS IN  THE CAST?
 Polly Walker will play his wife Trottie, a charismatic adventuress whom Book loves but not physically, for they are in a ‘lavender’ marriage to conceal Book’s sexual orientation in a time when it was illegal to be gay. Joely Richardson, Daniel Mays, Jonas Nay, Connor Finch, Elliot Levey and Buket Kömür also star. Blake Harrison joins the returning core cast members as Sergeant Morris, with Rosie Cavaliero, Jacob Fortune-Lloyd, Tom Forbes, Amanda Drew, Luke Norris, Ella Bruccoleri and Michael Workéyè. Hope we get some kind of trailer or a clip soon, so stay tuned.
